Enjoyable little movie made about 10 years ago. A civil servant, who is sick of the rat race, bails on his entire life and winds up in Mumford, hence the title. His choice of vocation/employment is as a psychologist. He figures people have always liked talking to him and he is a great listener. It works. Suddenly he is very popular in town but you can guess the formula and how things are going to turn out. The ride is fun and sometimes a little predictability is relaxing. Some stellar performances from the peripheral roles make this even more likeable.
